To all whom it may concern:
it known that T, Crianns l5. Bosonnnnoian, citizen of the United States, residing at Pittsburgh, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, l1ave invented certain new and useful lmprovements in name-Boards, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to game boards and has for its object to provide a board of such class, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, rrercby amusing and instructive gam s can be played thereon, more particularly the game of ltavolet.
Further objects of the invention are to provide a game board which is ornamental in appearance, durable, instructive and amusing and creating considerable interest when playing a game thereon, more particuriations and modifications can be resorted to which come within the scope of the claim hereunto appended.
The drawing illustrates a top plan view of a game board in accordance with this in vention.
The game board shown is designed primarily for the playing of the game of Bavolet but it is to be understood that the board cai be employed for the playing of games to which it is found applicable.
Referring to the drawing 1 denotes the body of the board having its upper face provided with conventional means to constitute playing surface.
The playing surface comprises a pair of end portions 2, 3, each formed with means to constitute a series of terminal stations l, as shown seven in number, but this number can be decreased or increased if desired. The terminal stations 1 are circular in form and are of a ditlerent color from the color of the end portions 2, 3. The tenninal stations one end portion are indicated at A 377 C?! D E F G771 ant} termi al stations of the other end portions H 1 J77 (61%;), L77 1MP, 1 The terminal stations at one end por- "ner end portions by diago- 's and in this connection onnected toe L e stations F, r
1 is arranged between and spaced from the end portions 2, 3 and said playing is indicated 11, and is of a different color from that of the end por tions 2,
l to extend over the playing neld 11 and also over the spaces formed between the end portions and the playing field and the latter is provided with means tov constitute stations 12 to 28 both inclusive. The stations 12 to 15 are positioned near one end of the field 11 and the stations to 28 near the other end of ti field 11. The stations 18 to 22 are positioned centrally of the field 11. The stations 16, 17 are arranged between the center and one end of the field and the stations 23 and are positioned between the center and the other end of the field 11. The station 18 is arranged in proximity to one side and the station 22 in proximity to the other side of the field 11.
The playing field 11 is furthermore provided with conventional means to constitute tracks to form branch lines, as indicated at 29 to 85 inclusive, and also at 36, 37.
The track 36 connects the stations 13 to 15 together; track 29 stations 13 and 18; track 30 stations 18 and 26; track 31 stations 2 27; track 32 stations 23 and 24:; track 38 stations 2% and 17; track 3-1 stations 16 17 track 35 stations 18 to 22,
l track 37 stations 2% and 22.
Circular disks, as indicated at 38 are used when playing a game on the board and when playing the game of Ravolet fourteen disks are used, seven to each player, that is to say if the board is provided with seven terminal stations at each end portion, the
nuinberoi disks employed to play the game depending on the number of terminal stations at an end portion.
What I claim is A game board comprising a body portion having means to constitute a playing field consisting of a playing surface and a pair of end portions spaced therefrom, each end portion having means to provide a row of terminal stations disconnected from each other, said playing field further having means to provide two sets of diagonally 8X- tending tracks bridging the spaces between the end portions and playing suri'ace, the
tracks of each set arranged in parallelism throughout and. extending from stations on one end portion to stations on the other end portion andwith the stations associated With the tracks of one set opposinr" the stations associated with the tracks of the other set, the tracks of one set of greater number than the tracl s of the other set and crossing this latter set, said playing surface further havin means to provide stations associated with said tracks and further with means to provide tracks connecting certain of said stations and crossing the diagonally disposed tracks, and movable elements to be shifted over the playing field.
In testimony whereof I i Hi); my signature.
